Personal testers opinion

Aloha online slot is boring. Low volatility and low winning potential. The only way to get the big winning is to trigger the lucky re-spin feature. It is not fit high-rolling and at the same time doesn't give any big winning. It keeps the balance and then slowly takes it away. The probability of hitting any winning during the next spin is equal to 20.83%. The free spins feature is below the middle line (statistically every 205th spin (0.49%)). The wagering rating is 6.01 from 10. Bonus hunters can try to complete the bonus wagering requirements here.

Review and recommendations from the testers team

Despite its quite outdated design and gameplay, this slot is still popular among players, especially among those who love playing the bonus games and wagering the bonus money. Many reviewers recommend it precisely for these purposes. Well, let's get this sorted out.

  • In my view, this is how the slot was before, just a few years ago. It is true that many were easily wagering and some of them even got quite a balance. It seems to me that NetEnt decided to reverse this trend (probably being under the other casino's pressure). This slot has not shown its best results lately. During the testing period, the slot did not give any free spins after 400-500 spins, which is quite unusual for the Aloha slots. By the way, it is still good for playing, but only at really low stakes of about €1.
  • The average value you get during the free spins is 20x - 40x bets. You may still be lucky enough to see 150x bets or even more, but it will not happen as often, so it is not worth your time.
  • The slot has a low dispersion value with a recommended 100x - 150x bets balance during a game at low stakes. Considering the fact it is not as good as it was before, I would suggest other slots of the provider. For those who are loyal to Aloha slots, you might want to focus your attention on its replica, Shangri-la slot.

Description of the slot

You will find yourself in paradise; on the sun-drenched Hawaii, where the flowers bloom, the guitars play, ripe fruits fall from the trees, and warm sea waves lure you to dive into the water. Friendly natives do not plan to add you to the daily menu. Spreading across the island, the festive coloured idols greet the guest with garlands of flowers and cheerful music on the way to the winning.

Symbols

On the playing field there may be the pay combinations of 9 – 30 matching symbols:

  • Pink Flower, Blue Shell, Coconut and Pineapple give from 5 to 2000 coins.
  • The idols have two positions on the screen. Blue and Green Idols give to the winner from 20 to 5000 coins, but Red Idol shells out for 20 -10,000 coins. Single symbols of Idols will appear during the re-spin feature and peep out from Wild boxes.
  • Box with a question mark is a wild symbol. Here it is called the Substitution symbol. Appearing on the screen, it becomes a symbol that is required to complete the pay combination. Box symbol does not substitute scatter.
  • Stamp with a view of Hawaiian evening is a scatter symbol. The appearance on the screen of no less than 3 stamps launches the free spins feature.

The free spins feature

Stamps launch free spins, the amount of which depends on the number of simultaneously dropped scatter: 3 Scatter - 9 free spins, 4 Scatter - 10 free spins, 5 Scatter - 11 free spins, 6 Scatter - 12 free spins. If on the screen during Free spins appear more Brand-Scatters, the idol will give you ExtrSpinse spins: 3 Scatter - plus 1, 4 Scatter - plus 2, 5 Scatter - plus 3, 6 Scatter - Plus 4.

The re-spins feature

The bonus feature called Sticky Win re-spins can be triggered during any of the spins. The winning symbols become sticky, and then re-spin comes. If more winning symbols fall, comes another re-spin.

How to win at Aloha Cluster Pays slot? (conclusion)

Each of our players knows how we will start this paragraph, namely: always test the slot machines in demo mode before starting a real money game. For players who want to win a good amount of money, we do not recommend this slot machine. We think the best bets are up to € 1, but not higher. We can only recommend this slot to bonus hunters if they tested it in demo mode before (to define "Hot" or "Cold"). The main potential of the slot is in the re-spin feature, we recommend that if you get a good winning from this bonus, change the game.
